Title: Method and apparatus for using uplink relative path gain related measurements to support uplink resource management
Inventor: GEIJER-LUNDIN ERIK
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2006-02-15
Abstract: A cellular system includes a first cell associated with a first base station, a second cell associated with a second base station, and a mobile radio currently served by the first base station. Distributed resource control may be used in which the first base station alone or in combination with the mobile station makes resource management decisions without having to involve a central controller. In ad-hoc networking, access points can manage resources in a distributed fashion. Relative path gain is determined for an uplink signal from the mobile radio. Relative path gain is based on a comparison of a first path gain related quantity for a mobile uplink signal to the second base station with a second path gain related quantity for the mobile uplink signal to the second base station. Uplink resources in the first cell are managed based on the relative path gain related quantity.
